No doubt you’re all up-to-date with the Sony World Photography Awards, the competition that takes place every year to discover new talent in the world of photography. We know you may not feel ready to enter a world-class competition just yet, so we have a smaller monthly competition for you to enter right here in the community.

 

August’s theme was ‘Travel’, and we’re delighted to announce our lucky winners who each win a Sony World Photography book and a year's membership to the World Photography Organisation!

September’s theme is ‘Panorama’ – to inspire you, we’ll be bringing you a masterclass by previous Sony World Photography Award finalist Regis Boileau, as well as some new wallpapers in our gallery, so look out for those!

 

The prizes are a VIP trip for two to the awards ceremony in London next spring, a professional compact Sony NEX-3N camera, stunning SWPA books and a free year’s membership to the World Photography Organisation . To enter the competition, simply upload your photos to the Competition photo gallery. Don’t forget to tag your photo with your country label, as we have separate prizes for each country!

 

Good luck everyone – who knows, in a few months you may feel ready for the big leagues, the Sony World Photography Awards themselves...
